SMOOTH ON SILICONE RUBBER...NOT RECOMENDED FOR MY PROJECTS

I...don't know why...I followed the instructions to the letter. I keep thinking its me. Yet I keep getting the same damn results.

I don't have anything bad to say about the Smooth On products I use regularly. But Smooth On Silicone Rubber is a bust for the molds I need! It says 45 min pot life and 6 hours to de mold.

After 12 hours...the silicone rubber is a stew of uncured molten mess. The outside is cured. But not the center. This is a theme with this crap. I have NEVER had a silicone Rubber mold made with Smooth On Products achieve anything even remotely close to a useable mold. I have tried and tried with this silicone rubber and nothing about it works. They all turn out a gluey, honey consistency mess.

Please understand. This is not a one off try. This isn't the first time I have tried to make a mold with this product. I have tried this product 4 or 5 times now. All with the same end result. I did have one mold that I was able to try. But only after I washed all the goo off. Ad even then, the damage to the mold made it not worth the effort.

I wont be trying this again.
